9" angle grinder with relevant disc, but a bit of a handful (and a bit scary for me)

angle grinder but if you do too many it will be burned out it will take 50 times as long to do and won't cut as clean.

If you want to diy you have to either pay for the right tools like we have to or you settle for substandard work which takes an inordinate length of time.

When you pay a professional you don't just pay for his arms and legs you pay for knowledge experience and equipment. Plus you pay for the fact he can better cope with the crises that happen out of the blue during a job and he is insured for the crises he can't cope with.

If it could be done with a hand saw you would see road workers up and down the country carry them around.
